this is where he works, but when he goes home and is around his wife and 3 daughters he has to try and maintain his manliness in a world dominated by women, and be a good example of what men are supposed to be for his grandson, the little kid his single unwed daughter is raising in her parents (Tim Allen's character's house) as so many Gen X people are doing.

it's on Netflix to stream. ABC was broadcasting it, and just cancelled it. Seems they aren't a fan of Tim Allens adult oriented dad and husband humor. Disney isn't about that sort of humor, they are about princesses and merchandising, and Disney owns ABC.

Despite strong ratings (2nd most watched comedy on ABC according to Variety.com) and a loyal fan base Studio 20th Century Fox Television is looking for a new home for the show.

The show didn’t have a ratings problem – it averaged 6.4 million viewers this season on Friday night, and that should be graded upward on a curve, since the overall Friday audience is typically smaller than other weeknights.

Instead of Last Man Standing, they’ll broadcast the princess drama “Once Upon a Time,” which this year drew... 3.2 million viewers, or half of Allen’s number. It's the story of what might have happened to Snow White, Maleficent, and the other Disney fairy tale characters... Rumpelstiltskin, Peter Pan, etc.

Maybe a network or streaming service more interested in actually having a popular show will show some interest. Hopefully Netflix picks it up to run with The Ranch... another good show.

“Last Man Standing” faces an uphill battle though, after six seasons, costs for the series are significantly higher than those for younger multi-camera comedies typically are. And the buying patterns of broadcast networks this development season showed little appetite for multi-cams among most of the Big Four.

King's lunch wagon concession outside the Warner Brothers lot, where Bette Davis ordered fried potatoes. King mentioned that one of his lunch wagons appeared in the 1932 film "I am a Fugitive From a Chain Gang."

William King worked in Hollywood in the silent era as an assistant director, the last film he worked on was the 1925 silent "Wizard of Oz." He quit the film business in approximately 1927 to run the lunch wagon concession.

The first diner is believed to be created in 1872, by a man named Walter Scott. He decided to sell food out of a horse-pulled wagon to employees of the local businesses. Scott’s diner can be considered the first diner with “walk up” windows that were located on each side of the wagon (just like us). Commercial production of lunch wagons began in 1887, by Thomas Buckley.

silk-screened all around the Hilborn intake scoop is a wad of hundred dollar bills, because it's just honest to acknowledge that building cars on this level is throwing money at it until you get awards, and running the engine at WOT is just like flushing gasoline down the carb

still early in the process... lots and lots more to do before this get close to being right, or and twice as much to get it finished

Right now I'm just working out the right size and seeing if it'll look right when I get to putting the wings on.

Then maybe I'll go for colors, and if it turns out right, and I don't have to remake it to the point of losing interest, I'll try and make it out of cloth, then see if it's possible make a plush toy out of it... like they did in 1968. What ever happened to that one? For all I know they only ever took 3 photos of it, and used it to base all the cartoon drawings off of.

Update a week later:

I added the bee antenna, a fuzzy nose, and wings, and worked on the face, then made the zoomie headers a bit longer

Plus, they have got the Pennsylvania cert for vehicle and emissions checks!

Car repair shops aren't known for catering to women, so Patrice Banks is trying to change that with a business model that focuses on female customers.

Banks quit her engineering job at DuPont and enrolled in automotive school, in part because she was uncomfortable going to auto repair shops.

“I hated all of my experiences going in for an oil change, being upsold all the time for an air filter."

Banks began surveying her friends, women she met through her job, the woman she bought coffee from each morning. She asked them: What do you wish you knew how to do for yourself but don’t? Overwhelmingly, the answer was: Fix my car. Banks looked for a woman mechanic she could talk to for a blog about car maintenance. She couldn’t find one. So at 32, she became a mechanic herself, going back to school at night for automotive technology while still working full time

That experience inspired Girls Auto Clinic: an auto repair shop and salon. While customers get their car fixed, they can also get a mani, pedi or hair styling. Seriously, you're going to need something to do for about a half hour while getting your oil changed... might as well consider the best use of your down time while your car is on the lift.

While women now hold more drivers licenses than men and spend more money each year on buying and having their cars repaired—more than $200 billion—they have good reason for these auto mechanic jitters. In a 2013 survey of car owners, 77 percent said mechanics are more likely to sell women unnecessary repairs, and a recent Northwestern University study found that auto-repair shops give women significantly higher price quotes than men.

Tool boxes for the hair brushes n stuff? I love it.

and they are still hiring hair and nail techs... it's harder to get the right employees (have you seen Beauty Shop with Queen Latifa? then you know) than good mechanics.

Banks has three stylists and nail techs now; but she’d like to have something like 10. The problem is that she’s having trouble finding people who can do nails and are passionate about her mission and brand. Like when one of her stylists wasn’t wearing her uniform to work — a blue-collared mechanic shirt with a patch that says “Clutch.” “People are complex as shit,” says Banks. “I’d rather work with a machine.”

So if you know someone with the licenses and a year of experience in the upper Darby part of the Philly area that wants to get working at a cool company, that is focused on helping women, let them know, the link is below to the job listing:

Must have a valid cosmetology license from State of Pennsylvania, and a degree from accredited Beauty School. Clutch Beauty Bar exists not only to be a part of the Girls Auto Clinic and #sheCANic movement, but also Clutch exists to create a clubhouse for women.
